Synopsis

The epic fantasy adventure begun in Sunshield races to its thrilling conclusion in this imaginative finale in which the fate of four extraordinary young people—and their nations—will be decided.
When their hopes for ending Moquoia’s brutal system of bondage are crushed, unlikely allies Lark and Veran are forced to flee into the harsh desert. With no weapons or horses, they must make their way to safety across the 50-mile expanse of waterless plains known as the water scrape. It is an odyssey filled with unexpected dangers that challenge even a skilled outlaw like Lark—though the farther they travel, the more she wonders if she even fits the fearsome title of the Sunshield Bandit anymore.Injured in the coup to overthrow the Moquoian monarchy, Tamsin, accompanied by Iano, retreat to a safe house, where they await the return of Lark and Veran. Determined to uncover the traitor in the court, they devise a plan to confront the new palace ashoki, Kimela.Imperiled by wilderness and their own tenuous alliances, Lark, Tamsin, and Veran each face massive risks to uncover the truth. But even if they find it, will their combined forces be strong enough to stop the evil infecting their beautiful land . . . and transform it into a fairer society for all?

If you can read through the end of this book without tearing up, you're made of stronger stuff than I. Floodpath wraps up a fantastic story about characters you can't help but love.

I've really enjoyed this series! I was a little worried about Lark and Veran but I loved their enemies-to-lovers story. Tamsin, Lark, and Veran all grow and become stronger, more understanding, and compassionate people as they make the world a more just and fair place. It's a lovely story about not......more

When we left off in Sunshield, Veran Greenbrier had realized that Lark, the Sunshield Bandit, was actually Princess Moira, who had kidnapped from her family in Lumen Lake as a child, and Iano and Veran had successfully rescued a grievously injured Tamsin from her captors. But they are left with even......more

Goodreads review by Karen on April 14, 2021

The second book in an epic fantasy duology that began with Sunshield. Floodpath picks up where the first book left off with the main characters Lark, Iano, Veran and Tamsin on the run from the authorities. It’s a high-stakes thriller as the characters race to save themselves and to end systemic slav......more
